My friends and I would go see it at the old Bayshore theater at midnight every once and a blue. It was a interactive show. When the characters made a toast, the audience threw real toast etc and... we all got up and did the TIME WARP! So much FUN!! We all have a little freak in us, lol  ;]!

SUNDAY

DID MY POT ROAST. I SEASON THE MEAT AND BROWNED IT IN A BIT OF HOT OIL TILL IT GETS A NICE FLAVORFUL CRUST. THEN THROW IN CHOPPED ONIONS,A BIT OF GARLIC ,

THEN COVER WITH WATER AND ADD MORE SALT.

BRING TO BOIL AND SIMMER COVERED FOR 4 HOURS. TAKE COVER OFF AND LET SIMMER ANOTHER 30 MINUTES TO AN HOUR AND THEN TAKE OUT THE ROAST AND COVER. STRAIN LIQUID AND TURN IT INTO GRAVY BY HEATING LIQUID TO A BOIL AND ADDING 3 TBSP OF FLOUR AND WHISKING AND COOKING DOWN TILL SLIGHTLY THICK. (I ALWAYS PRE MIX MY FLOUR IN A BIT OF THE MEATS LIQUID TO MAKE SURE IT'S NOT LUMPY WHEN I ADD IT TO THE POT!!
